Walkability is becoming a popular buzzword in planning cities that suffers high level of pollution due to, amongst others, emission from automobiles are embracing walkability in order to reap its benefits. In addition to that, walkability is the measure of how satisfactorily the transportation system meets the need of walking of the community. Several studies around the world have put great efforts to highlight the importance of walkability in urban as it is an important measure in determining a better environment. There is a strong relationship between walkability, sustainable transportation and the environment. In addition to that, walkability is a concept that is consistent with sustainable development and transportation system due to its economic, social and environmental benefits. Walkability satisfaction rating within a localized neighborhood can be measured at the macro level with the aid of GIS at the initial development stages. The methods and techniques used are varying and no single walkability assessment tool can be designed to suit different environmental conditions. Different groups of societies for whom the theoretical and practical perception of cities development vary, or different types of neighborhoods with different needs would warrant different approaches. Therefore, this paper examines the methods, techniques and indicators that have been used to measure walkability and highlights the important benefits of improving walkability in the built environment. Moreover it also describes the relationship between walkability, sustainable transportation and environment.

Safety and Healthcare system become the government's main agenda, especially when the country is facing a critical global epidemic crisis, known as the transmission of the third wave of COVID-19. The country of Sabah is a state that reports so many cases of daily infections that up to 600 active cases are detected every day and subsequently places the state of Sabah become a red zone. Therefore, the emphasis on knowledge level is an important aspect in curbing the transmission of COVID-19. Thus, this study was conducted to find out what is the level of knowledge about COVID-19 and the Movement Control Order (MCO) as well as to identify the relationship between these two variables in breaking the chain of COVID-19 transmission, especially among the ILKKM KK staff. The study design was applying quantitatively in the research methodology, by the implementation of questionnaires through surveys, while convenient random sampling was used as a sampling method with a total of 267 respondents consisting of ILKKM KK staff. Analysis of instrument evaluation and sampling methods is also discussed in this study. The results showed that the patient's level of knowledge about COVID-19 was at a high level with a mean value = 3.902, SD = 0.423. However, the level of knowledge about MCO is at a moderate level with a mean value = 3.631, SD = 0.323. Meanwhile, correlation analysis showed there is a strong relationship between knowledge of COVID-19 and knowledge of MCO with correlation value r = 0.79, p> 0.05. Thus, the results of this analysis show that there is a strong relationship between the knowledge level ofCOVID-19 and MCO in deciding the chain of infection of COVID-19, especially among the ILKKM KK residents.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the results of empirical research of psychosemantic features of perception of animation advertising by the representatives of the youth target audience. Differences in the perception of animation advertising between representatives of three age groups within the youth target audience were established. The authors identified four factors (“Confidence”, “Attractiveness”, “Trust”, “Consumer Activity”), which are manifested in the perception of animation advertising by young teens (12-15 y.o.). At the same time, for аdolescence teens (16-19 y.o.) and youth (20-24 y.o.) there are three factors (“Confidence”, “Attractiveness”, “Consumer activity”), which determine their attitude to animation advertising. The peculiarities of young people's attitude to animation advertising with different types of graphics (2-D, 3-D, combined) and consumer motivation of this target audience are revealed. It has been identified that commercials based on the use of 3-D graphics are evaluated by representatives of the youth audience (of all age groups) most positively and often make them want to buy the products of the advertised brand. Commercials based on the use of 2-D graphics technology attract the most attention of younger teens (12-15 y.o.) and create the appropriate consumer motivation. The commercials created on the basis of the combined graphics are the least interesting to the representatives of the youth target audience. However, the ideas underlying such advertising are the most understandable for youth, and the advertising itself is perceived as relevant and evokes a sense of trust in the product and brand. The connection between the level of emotional intelligence and creativity with the peculiarities of the perception of animation advertising is revealed. Subjects with higher level of emotional intelligence rate animation graphics in advertising more positively than people with low levels of emotional intelligence. Representatives of the youth target audience (all age groups) with high levels of emotional intelligence are most sensitive to animation advertising using 3-D graphics. A similar trend is observed in subjects with a high level of creativity, rate commercials using 3-D graphics higher and perceive it more positively (compared with subjects with lower level of creativity). It is established that young teenagers (12-15 y.o.) with a high level of creativity also positively perceive animation advertising using 2-D graphics technology. Prospects for further research include a more detailed study of the perception of animation advertising with different types of graphics by different age groups, determining the relationship between the perception of animation advertising and the value-semantic sphere of the personality of consumers.

Abstract. Chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) plays a vital role in aquatic ecosystems. Strong relationship has been proven between CDOM and dissolved organic carbon (DOC), which set the basis for remote estimation of DOC with remote sensing data. An algorithm has been developed to retrieve DOC via CDOM absorption at 275 and 295 nm with coastal waters. However, the relationship between DOC and aCDOM(275) and aCDOM(295) for different types of inland waters are still not clear. Further, is the relationship stable with different types of inland waters? In the current investigation, samples from fresh lakes, saline lakes, rivers or streams, urban water bodies, ice-covered lakes were examined. The regression model slopes range from 1.03 for urban waters to 3.13 for river water, with extreme low slope value for highly saline waters (slope is about 0.3); while coefficient of determinations (R2) range from 0.71 (urban waters) to 0.93 (winter waters). The specific CDOM absorption (SUVA254) showed the similar trend, i.e., low values were observed for saline water and waters from semi-arid or arid regions, where strong photo-bleaching is expect due to thin ozone layers, less cloud cover, longer water residence time and sunshine hours. In the contrast, high values were measured with waters developed in wetlands or forest in Northeast China, where inverse environmental settings were witnessed. The investigation also demonstrated that stronger relationships between CDOM and DOC were revealed when CDOM275 were sorted by SUVA254 (0.78 < R2 < 0.98) or the ratio of CDOM250:CDOM365 (0.78 < R2 < 0.99). Our results highlight that non-unified relationship exhibits for different types of inland waters, and remote sensing models for DOC need to be tuned with different inherent optical parameters obtained from various types of waters for quantification of DOC in inland waters.

The Relationship

Annual ryegrass (Lolium rigidum) samples from the cropping belt of Western Australia were screened for herbicide resistance in 1992 and 1993. There was a strong relationship between the number of applications of a herbicide group and development of resistance in ryegrass populations. Resistance was detected in all populations that received >7 applications of aryloxyphenoxypropionate (AOPP) and cyclohexanedione (CHD) herbicides or >4 applications of sulfonylurea (SU) herbicides. Some AOPP-resistant populations had also developed crossresistance to SU herbicides, a group with a different mode of action. Inclusion of pasture in the rotation had little effect on the relationship between the number of applications of the AOPP and SU herbicides and development of resistance. A subset of 33 populations was chosen to determine the response of triasulfuron-resistant populations to sulfometuron, a nonselective SU herbicide which has been shown to be effective against metabolic-type resistance. All triasulfuron-resistant populations were found to be resistant to sulfometuron, possibly due to insensitive acetolactate synthase (ALS) in these ryegrass populations. Some of these SU-resistant populations were also resistant to the imidazolinone herbicide imazethapyr, another ALS inhibitor. However, there were several populations with a high level of SU resistance that were still susceptible to imazethapyr.

The purpose of the present study was to determine the relationship between reaction time and deception type and investigate the effect of deception type on reaction time during smash in Badminton. Sex Badminton players are high level athletes in the world participated in the last Olympic championship "London 2012", (mass 69.17±6.31 kg, length 178.00±0.06 cm. Reaction time is defined as the period of time that elapses between offensive player stroke the shuttle and opponent player move to shuttle direction. Smashes were analyzed of the last six matches in Olympic championship London 2012, two matches in Quarter-finals, two matches of Semi-finals, Bronze Medal Match and Gold Medal Match. Dartfish v.7 software motion analysis used to analysis 230 smashes and for the statistical analysis of the data the IBM SPSS Statistics 21 was used. The complex deception is more difficult types of deception for the opponents as the player use more than a tool during the striking and then the degree of difficulty followed by arm deception, while the performance of the smashes without deception gives a greater opportunity for an opponent to anticipate the strike and then stopped, and this means that the increase the degree of difficulty of deception increased the time of reaction necessary to repel the strike, thereby increasing the opportunity to make the point, therefore must specify a part in the content of the training programs for the smashes combined with different types of deception.

Abstract. The COVID-19 pandemic has had significant effects on public health. Previous studies showed that the fear of COVID-19 was positively correlated with depression, anxiety, and stress. This study aims to compile and meta-analyze the relationship between fear of COVID-19 and depression, anxiety, and stress among the general population. The studies published between March 2020 and June 2021 were scanned from various databases (Google Scholar, PubMed, Web of Science [ISI], and SCOPUS). As a result of the literature search, 746 studies were reached, 88 studies were found suitable, and 21 met the inclusion criteria. Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA Version 3.0) and metafor package in R were used for analyses. A strong relationship was observed between the fear of COVID-19 and anxiety ( r = .55, p < .001); there were moderate relationships between the fear of COVID-19 and depression ( r = .34, p < .001) and stress ( r = .44, p < .001). All these relationships were significant. The results showed that the relationships between the fear of COVID-19 and depression, anxiety, and stress had a high level of heterogeneity. Meta-regression analyses revealed that the average of the sample age was a significant predictor of the relationship between fear of COVID-19 and anxiety. However, other covariates (female proportion and culture) were not statistically significant for the relationship between fear of COVID-19 and anxiety. None of these covariates was significant predictors of the relationship between fear of COVID-19 with depression and stress. Although the current meta-analysis has some limitations, the results revealed that the fear of COVID-19 is associated with mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, and stress.

Academic studies show that one of the main predictors of early school dropout at secondary education is student truancy behaviour, usually beginning at primary education. This is a problem that gets worse in socially vulnerable environments. This study analyses the prevalence and types of truancy in a population of students with high social risk in Madrid city, studying the relationship between truancy and their school performance. A questionnaire was answered by mentor teachers of students at the preschool and primary stages (N = 120), who reported information from a total of 433 students from 12 different schools. Results showed a high level of prevalence in the different types of truancy (Active and Passive). Among these behaviours, 46.86% of students skipped entire days without a valid excuse and 42.51% did not usually do their homework. Overall, 60% showed underachievement and great rates of curricular gap. In 6th grade, the last year of primary school, 74.42% of students had repeated one grade and 27.91% more than one. Moreover, significant correlations were found between truancy and school performance. The detection and early action against truancy in primary education with this type of student will reduce early dropouts and make school a key actor for the development of these students.
